Upset by the setback for his Paris Saint-Germain against Arsenal (2-0), this Tuesday in the Champions League, Luis Enrique refused to explain his tactical choices to Margot Dumont for Canal+. “ I have no intention of explaining my tactics, because you would not understand them », Coldly said the Spanish technician in a post-match interview. A sequence which has been seen and reviewed on social networks. The attitude of Luis Enrique was particularly singled out. Interviewed by the newspaper The Teamthe neo-journalist of the encrypted channel returned to this exchange. She assures that she does not blame the Parisian coach and even reveals that she has apologized to PSG.

For me, there is above all awkwardness. He’s not a bad guy. I’ve already chatted with him before or after an interview, I appreciate him. I don’t take (his words) for myself at all, but for the entire profession. I know very well that after a defeat, speaking out is not easy. I played football, and at my humble level, I can understand the difficulty. I wasn’t surprised either, because he had had such outings with other journalists before. But it bothered me more compared to the supporters who are also waiting for answers. We are a link between the actors and the public. By not responding to me, he is not responding to them. Did he apologize? No, but I sent a message to the club this morning to apologize for the bad buzz around this interview. I know that after a match there is pressure, all of that is beyond me. I only did my job, I asked questions that weren’t mean, just those that everyone is asking at that moment. (…) If it’s to ask boat questions, frankly, there’s no point in being there. What bothers me is that he sees us more as an opposition and not as a relay for the outside world… », Said Margot Dumont, regarding this interview.
